Later that day, Cell arrived to the news station to announce his tournament.

(Cell)"Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Cell. You may not know me, so I'll explain."

His voice then sounded like what it did in his first form.

(Cell)"I'm the monster from Ginger Town."

It went back to normal.

(Cell)"In seven days, I will host my own little tournament, The Cell Games. All you have to do, is defeat me, and I'll leave this planet. But, if all the participants fail, I'll completely obliterate it. Anybody can enter, and I'll be the only one you can go against."

(Cell)"Remember, only seven days."

Time skip five days later

It's almost time. In just 24 hours, the fate of all life in the universe will be decided on The Cell Games. The Ginyu Force used the Hyperbolic Time Chamber for four days, and they think they're ready. The group, along with King Cold, back in his second form, were having their last meal before the fight in a Chinese restaurant.

(And all the humans there are freaking out that an 8-foot tall man was able get through the door.)

While the four members of the Ginyu Force were chowing down on some noodles and meat buns, Ginyu was speaking with the two Frost Demons.

(Ginyu)"So, Lord Chiliad, which one of you is gonna fight Cell first?"

(Chiliad)"I've decided that father will fight first, and I will after him."

(King Cold)"Even though I was unconscious, I could still feel his power, it's exactly the same as mine."

(Ginyu)"Really? Then why are you going to give up?"

(King Cold)"You see, my son here has found that ultimate form he was talking about in the chamber. I've felt it, and it's even stronger than me."

Ginyu almost choked on his food hearing what the King just said.

(Ginyu)"Wh-What?! He's stronger than you now?!"

(King Cold)"Yes, he always was. Before I came here, my power level was only 253,000,000, while his was double that. Why else would I let him run our empire?"

(Ginyu)"I...never really thought about that. I always assumed that you were the strongest."

(Chiliad)"It's not just strength that defines a leader. There's other elements that one must have. For instance, a good leader must have the perfect mixture of respect, and discipline."

(Chiliad)"I have lived long enough to see thousands of leaders make the mistake of having too much respect, or discipline."

(Chilad)"With too much respect, it causes the ones below them to get the impression that they can do whatever they want. And those with too much discipline, it causes the ones below them to live their lives in fear, knowing that if they ever messed up, even once, that it could cost them their life, and the lives of their friends and family."

(Chiliad)"Like that Vegeta, his father I mean. He was too demanding with his people. Like with that one child, I think his name was, Broly, or something like that. He had a power level of 10,000 at birth, and Vegeta decided to kill him and his father, instead of getting stronger himself so that the child wouldn't be a threat to his rule."

(Ginyu)"He had an infant killed?! Now that's just plain sick!"

(Even though Chiliad killed a child a few chapters back, and indirectly a bunch of Saiyan babies in the first.)
